In France, the university system is essential to research. At the University of Rouen Normandy, alongside our duty to share and impart knowledge, we also contribute to knowledge-building through our research activities. Thanks to our research lecturers, students receive the best possible education as the courses are taught by people who also work in our research units.

The University of Rouen Normandy promotes interregional research by developing numerous scientific partnerships, which have gained national and international acclaim in many fields.

We partake in numerous international projects in partnership with institutions in over 41 countries, though most are in Italy, the UK and Germany.

Giving our research an international reach is important to us as we strive for scientific excellence on the national and European scene. Our Europe and International Office supports research development at URN. The office is tasked with advising on strategies for financing and developing new European and international research projects in keeping with our policy. It also supervises projects and supports the different actions implemented at each project stage, by helping with research financing formalities, any negotiation processes, research project and contract drafting, and so on.

Research at the University of Rouen Normandy is structured around three main study areas and is the driving force behind scientific collaboration:

• Chemistry, Biology, Health
• Humanities, Culture, Societies
• Materials, Energy, Digital, Environment
